IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 
    Big Bore Bob, a self-proclaimed math geek often thought
about toast and inter-dimension travel. The travel he mathematically
calculated long ago- something about E<>MC2 unless followed by Pi or Y.
The toast he never could get a firm grasp of. Stick bread in the toaster,
wait and *pop* you got burnt bread. Fascinating yet so utter confusing- so
mathematically incorrect in a correct way. Driven to the point of minor
annoyance Big Bore Bob found a hammer and began disassembling the mysterious
device. After 10 or 12 poorly-placed hits he realized the machine wasn't going
to yield it's secrets to him today so he stuck in another piece of bread,
waited seven minutes, decided he broke the machine, walked to his office,
spun a dial non-chalantly as he passed and stepped through, for the first
time, the inter-dimensional portal he'd constructed two years ago out of
paperclips, duct-tape and a real spiffy surge protector. Won't he be
surprised when he finds out the travel bleached him white, burned off his
hair and clothes and melted his finger and toe nails. Oh yea, and that he
can't get back because his toaster shorted out, burning down his house not
to mention 100 other homes. He's currently wanted for questioning
but it's best he's stuck where he is so he doesn't have to think about toast.

Meanwhile in Dwaine, Texas, Herbert Duschem, the self-proclaimed "gravity 
doesn't exist and I'll prove it eventually" guy, was last seen floating over 
Houston. It's assumed he burned up in the atmosphere.



DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 
    Accidentally, actually. All objects
created by myself, minus the Poser-figure. Textures found on the
'Textures For Professionals' and 'Textures & Materials' CD-ROMs with
some minor tweaking on my part.
